It has come down to this for the LSU baseball Tigers. Defeat North Carolina for the second straight day and return home to The Box for a Super Regionals matchup against West Virginia. Lose, and it’s the end of the line for this special team and for many of its stars.
Who will pitch? Who will be the star? Will it be one of the usuals like Tommy ‘Tanks’ White or Steven ‘Monster’ Milam, or will it be a Michael Braswell or Brady Neal or Josh Pearson? Will someone come out of the bullpen and make it 4 or 5 innings?
Jim Derry brings in LSU baseball beat writer Koki Riley, for Monday’s Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 246) presented by Evangeline Securities. And in Jim’s ‘Extra Point,’ he sympathizes with fans of the Atlanta Falcons (not really) for the punishment they are about to receive for tampering with quarterback Kirk Cousins.
